Instructions
-
Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled tofu, sweet corn kernels, finely chopped green onions, corned beef, and the egg. Season with salt and ground pepper to taste. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
-
-
Sauté Aromatics: In a skillet, heat some butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until they are fragrant and golden brown. This step adds depth to the filling.
-
Combine and Mix: Add the sautéed onion and garlic to the tofu and corn mixture. Stir until everything is evenly mixed. Ensure the filling is well-combined and set aside.
-
Wrap the Martabak: Take a spring roll wrapper and place a generous spoonful of the filling at one end. Fold the sides in and roll tightly to form a neat package. Repeat this process until all the filling is used up.
-
Fry the Martabak: In a frying pan, heat a sufficient amount of cooking oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the wrapped martabak into the pan. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
-
Serve: Once cooked, remove the martabak from the pan and let them drain on paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own.
Tips for Success
- Serving Suggestion: Pair your martabak with a spicy dipping sauce or sweet soy sauce for added flavor.
- Vegetarian Option: For a vegetarian version, omit the corned beef or replace it with additional vegetables or plant-based meat alternatives.
- Storage: Leftover martabak can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet for best results.
